[C320-list] Lifeline replacement

[Hansen, Brian]

In Australia you're unable to get the Yachting Australia safety
certificate if your lifelines have a plastic coating. This applies even
to the lowest possible category 7 inshore safety certificates.

Subject: [C320-list] Lifeline replacement

On the list this year is lifeline replacement.  My thought was to use 
bare stainless wire (not coated), and QuickAttach (SunCor) swageless 
fittings.  While maybe a bit pricey, at least the connectors can be 
reused, while the wire can be replaced.

Any thoughts or suggestions?  If this isn't a great idea, any 
recommendations for riggers/services to put together a new set of
lifelines?

thanks for your thoughts!
